Warning areas on routings via Dubai

Every area below is recorded on at least one routing we cover through, from or to Dubai. An area that is close on the map but recorded on none of them is not listed — closeness is not something we measure.

Avoid advice means airlines have been told to stay out of an area while the warning is in force. That is not the same as closed airspace: an airport inside an advice area can be open with flights running normally, and each area's summary says which it is.

Airlines are told to stay out of the airspace over the waters of the Gulf, including the part of it that falls to the United Arab Emirates, at every altitude. Flights arriving at and departing from airports in the area are excepted, and over land the advice is to take extra care. Dubai and Abu Dhabi are open and flights are running.

Middle East Caution Zone
● Active Avoid advice

Airlines are told to take extra care flying over Israel, Jordan, Oman and Saudi Arabia; the airspace is open and flights are running normally. Jordan is covered by a bulletin of its own, and it asks for the same thing as the rest of this group: take the risk into account, not stay out of the area.
